Watching people gleefully cheer for the police to crack the heads of their own children in support of sending arms to a country systematically killing children with those very arms is definitely going to stick with a lot of people for a very long time.

And a lot of people will work very hard to occlude the obvious implications of what’s happening but it’s plain as day.

Apologies, this is an irrelevant style comment, but occlude. Thank you.

America hates children, example one trillion

Not for nothing it's one of the only three countries in the world that didn't ratify the Convention of the Rights of Children. And history showed us it doesn't have enough with brutalizing and killing those in its own land. For us outside, fighting the US is protecting our own children.

I think it's all going downhill once Americans decided they loved their guns more than their kids after Sandy Hook.

Pretty much before then with Columbine and every other school shooting since then.

This is why they’re doing everything possible to cast them as violent extremists instead of earnest teenagers and young adults

Reminds me of 1963, 1968, 1970 …

Well, maybe. This is the same thing that happened 50 years ago and the extent to which it stuck with this country is pretty minimal, imo.

I think the movements we’re seeing spring up now are also a result of the movements that happened 50 years ago. This level of solidarity with Palestine started decades ago and only got strengthened during Ferguson. Think this accretion of resistance is the expression of our cultural memory.

Fair. I just wish I wasn't seeing people so gleeful at the idea of shooting young people *again*.

How many were up in arms about Kent State and now that they got their retirement down have become traitors.

I got news for ya: a LOT of libs are screaming for punishment against protestors as well.

Will it though? I mean, I’d like to think it would stick with people but l’m a bit more skeptical.

Don't think it did the last few times

Reminds me the pro iraq war tbh. And what I've learn about Vietnam protests.

Come the next election (assuming there is one) this will be one of the defining issues candidates will have to answer, the media will pose it thinking it will help the establishment candidate to voice a policy of genocidal apologia while the furthest left response will see massive grassroots support

Posting students who say they don't know what they protesting for is also another tactic they're using...
